Darkness into Light
In addition to Tony’s list, I watched a documentary on portrait and fashion photographer Richard Avedon called Darkness and Light. Here’s a quote from the video that really resonated with how I’ve been approaching photography:

The Oracle
Cheap fun in Dallas: Head up to the 40th floor in the Chase Tower. Called the Sky Lobby, it’s free and open to the public Monday through Friday, 9am-5pm.
Thanks to Sherry for taking me around, even though she didn’t really know where to go.
